RE: Checking bottom layers
Hi It might also be worth removing the tea "bag" as often they are made from wood fibres with and may even contain plastic. If they don't break down - that's why! If there aren't any worms in the sump then you can leave the liquid in there - until you want to use it. Perfect temperature for worm bre...

RE: Mice and rats

RE: Animal/human hair
We had a customer once who bought a wormery for her hair salon. It took ages for the hair to break down

No, printer ink is made up from vegetable dye, so not toxic to worms
Just add the food neat, the shredded paper goes on top of any food as this is where your worms will be working.
It's useful to dampen it down, worms like it more

RE: traveling with worms
Glad they reached the destination successfully.
We have had worms flown to Africa, all over Europe - even the northernmost tip of Norway.
